OUR TREATMENT PROCESS

The AirAllé device blows heated air through its applicator tip along the scalp and hair shafts at a higher flow (but cooler temperature) than a hair dryer. Effectively treating head lice has become fast and safe with the AirAllé device.

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • Step 1

    The person receiving the treatment must have dry, untangled hair that can be easily combed and is free of hair products and scalp-treatment products.

  • Step 2

    During the course of a 30-minute treatment, the trained AirAllé technician will gently place the device’s applicator tip under the hair and against the head, moving its position every 30 seconds until the entire head has been treated.

  • Step 3

    The purpose of the AirAllé device is to effectively treat the lice and eggs through dehydration. Dead lice and dead eggs will remain in the hair after treatment. AirAllé technicians will do a post-treatment comb-out (which usually takes 30 minutes) with a good quality lice comb to remove the dead lice and eggs.

  • Step 4

    Technicians will then apply a post-treatment rinse using dimethicone oil to ensure the lice and eggs eradication of the previous steps.

STEP 1

PLEASE NOTE: The AirAllé device cannot be used to treat persons who cannot sense temperature or pain; who cannot communicate physical discomfort; who have open head wounds, sores, or visible signs of skin or scalp abnormalities; who have received radiation treatment of the head within the last 6 months; who have cranial or facial implants; children under the age of 4; or who have hair that cannot be combed through with a standard comb.
